Tsn 1040: Sekeres & Price

Matt and guest co-host Patrick Johnston discuss Marcus Pettersson's contract extension and whether Quinn Hughes will skip (or just miss) the 4 Nations tournament. The guys discuss whether Pettersson's new deal is better than if they had re-signed Nikita Zadorov; why they acted so quickly; could waiting have provided better information on the fit; and the merits of getting him locked up. They also talk about the sensitive nature of the conversation with Hughes. It's in the club's best interest that he doesn't play, but does encouraging him to sit out cut too close to offending him given what's gone on this year with the J.T. Miller trade and a recast roster. They also touch on Carson Soucy's comments about being on the trade block, and 5-on-5 scoring being down league-wide.Rob Williams joins with some hot takes.

Matt and guest co-host Farhan Lalji from Super Bowl discuss the makeover of the Canucks; the availability of Carson Soucy via trade; and whether J.T. Miller belongs in the Canucks' Ring of Honour.

Lions in free agency.John Shannon stops by and says he's disappointed that Miller is gone, even if he understands it. He really likes newcomers Drew O'Connor and Victor Mancini, but says the most important guy in the trades is a guy who wasn't a part of those trades: Elias Pettersson. He remains bullish on the Canucks' playoff chances and is thrilled that Rick Tocchet can finally get back to coaching.Cam Robinson is coolish on the Canucks' deals. He's fine with the Miller deal but doesn't like that they had to surrender a first-round pick

Cam Robinson is coolish on the Canucks' deals. He's fine with the Miller deal but doesn't like that they had to surrender a first-round pick in the Marcus Pettersson trade. He says there should be a market for Soucy but wonders why the Canucks would move a potential playoff contributor after making a trade for two unrestricted free agents. He doesn't see a fit for Ottawa's Josh Norris, even if he loves the idea of acquiring Quinn Hughes' best friend. And he says Miller falls short of Ring of Honour worthiness.
